The films of the Chosin Lake series originated from a split of the same script, so the main part of the Chosin Lake Watergate Bridge was created at the same time as the first Chosin Lake
[47

. However, after the release of the first film, the production team made the decision to strengthen the emotion and details of the Watergate Bridge, based on audience feedback
[9]
After many times
After the re-creation, the script for the second "Watergate Bridge of Chosin Lake" eventually totaled about 40 drafts

Tsui Hark
He said that in the past, he as a director told the actor the effect he wanted, and let the actor achieve it, but this time it was often the actor himself who proposed what degree he wanted to do, and he as a director gave feedback, and selected a certain one from the actors' ideas

The Watergate Bridge at Chosin Lake was filmed at the same time as the previous film, and after it was split into two films, the Watergate Bridge was re-shot
[10]
.
Originally, the "Changjin Lake Watergate Bridge" reshoot wanted to go to the north, but it was difficult to catch up with the epidemic situation in the north, and Hengdian World Studios could make snow and complete the shooting, so all the "Changjin Lake Watergate Bridge" reshoot scenes were shot in Hengdian
[10]
. In addition,
Many of the indoor scenes in "Watergate Bridge," especially those in the headquarters, were also shot in Hengdian
[10]
.
Most of the film was shot in early 2021, but due to seasonal changes, some scenes were shot in the winter
[20]
.
Among them, many of the scenes shot in winter were completed in the extremely cold weather of more than minus 30 degrees Celsius, and the actors were not only frozen stiff, but also performed under the huge snowflakes blown by the blower, and even tried to restore the footage of eating snow
[21]
.
Not only that, in order to restore the most real state of the volunteer army on the battlefield, the actors challenged the limit in the shooting, under the premise of ensuring safety, the actual shooting as much as possible, and then through post-optimization, to achieve the best film effect

The film revolves around the specific space of "Watergate Bridge", the story of "Three bombs of Watergate Bridge" faces the conflict between attack and defense, the wisdom and courage in "attacking strong with weak", and the tenacity and perseverance in repeatedly sawing, showing and constructing the ups and downs of the battle process and the level of rich meaning. The heroic feat of "sacrificing one's life to preserve peace" produced a noble sense of tragedy, and let us understand that heroes are ordinary people who care about the motherland, defend peace, and risk their lives to die. The tempering of ice and fire let us see the red flag of the volunteers and the heroic legend of blood
[76]
.
The film adopts the narrative strategy of "micro-legend" under the epic background, taking the audience to explore the details and gradually unfold the historical and legendary battle process and battle details. "Micro-legend" has become the narrative means of concreting the type elements. Although "legend" and "type" have an inherent coupling, the type is often more dominant in the level of narrative mode

"Watergate Bridge" is a panoramic restoration of the "three blow up the Watergate Bridge" process, the film camera language is rich, the narrative is compact, the sense of suspense throughout, to bring the audience immersive viewing experience
[34]
.
"Characters give way to scenes" is a taboo in war movies, but Watergate Bridge does not ignore this. In addition to the realistic war scenes, the war friendship, brotherhood and deep feelings of family and country in the film also bring strong emotional impact to the audience
[34]
.
From "Changjin Lake" to "Watergate Bridge", the characters are more three-dimensional and full, and actors such as Wu Jing, Yi Yangqianxi, Zhu Yawen have contributed good acting skills
[34]
.
"Watergate Bridge" also intersperses touching drama in the cracks of each battle, and makes many audiences call it "breaking the defense" through a number of infectious details.
[34]
.
(People's Daily Online review)
If the Chojin Lake embedded Wu Wanli's growth path as a young hero, then Watergate Bridge evoked emotional resonance by constantly switching narrative perspectives and rich visual elements, thus building a hero code that was in line with the historical picture and audience perception
[35]
. As a war film, Watergate Bridge takes the audience back to a time when only hard work and perseverance could find a way out
[35]
.
The construction of hero code in the film not only makes people full of power, but also points out the direction of the development of China's new main theme film
[35]
.
